Company's Innovative Approach makes Encryption Processing Faster

AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / April 25, 2017 / CipherLoc Corporation (CLOK), a leading provider of highly secure data protection technology, today announced the availability of a new white paper, "An Analysis of Encryption Performance," which summarizes how CipherLoc's unique technology, which is designed to make encryption faster, safer, and massively scalable, can be used to reduce the latency penalty associated with the deployment of encryption algorithms.

The foundation of modern security relies on encryption technology to protect sensitive data and maintain user privacy. However, it is a well-known fact that encryption technology comes with a price: increased latency. These latencies get worse when the key sizes are increased to stave off the continued advances in computing horsepower. This is one of the reasons why encryption has not been ubiquitously deployed despite the many security and privacy benefits it can provide.

The just-released white paper takes the most widely used encryption algorithm on the market today, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and analyzes its performance both when running in standalone mode (i.e. without the CipherLoc utility included) as well as when running with the CipherLoc acceleration utility enabled. The white paper also compares how a highly-secure AES algorithm enabled with CipherLoc's utility performed vis--vis several other well-known encryption algorithms.

The white paper shows how the latency penalty associated with the AES encryption process is dramatically reduced when that same algorithm is accelerated using CipherLoc's innovative encryption utility. Depending on the file size and underlying hardware, performance improvements of up to 50% can be seen which in turn leads to better utilization, higher efficiency, and greater scalability when deploying encryption technology.

CipherLoc's solution is not a new algorithm but rather a utility that can be added on top of any existing cryptographic encryption algorithm. Once applied, the CipherLoc utility will not only improve the underlying encryption processing speed, it will simultaneously strengthen the data protection security. It will also make encryption algorithms more scalable by obviating the need to be constantly increasing the key size to maintain current levels of security. CipherLoc also simplifies the key management infrastructure by using one-time-use ephemeral keys that do not require key storage. In short, CipherLoc's easy-to-deploy technology makes encryption processing faster, stronger, and massively scalable.
